The Gathering of the Waters

  1. Hi Nancy. Every time I see this post, the gathering together of waters keeps drawing my attention, but I'm not sure why. Any thoughts on this? Is it possible for you to share what stirs your spirit? Thank you.

    1. Well, this is amazing. At least, it is to me. I'm having the same reaction, Caitlynne Grace! But I didn't when I first put this together. But now whenever I scroll through, I am "stopped" by the sight of that wave coming toward "me," and even by the phrase the gathering of the waters. The wave looks taller every time I see it! It's like "waters" of some (spiritual?) kind are gathering even now (I know that probably sounds weird). So it's intriguing to me, to say the least, that you said what you did. Do you have any other thoughts?

  2. I'm stunned to hear that. And a bit shaken. I asked for your thoughts because I wasn't having any good ones. The last time I remember the waters gathering together was that terrible Asian tsunami in Dec 2004 that killed hundreds of thousands of lives. Just before Lent this year, I had a dream that troubled me (https://writingonmyheart.wordpress.com/2016/02/25/lent-14-the-press-of-water/). I dreamt of a terrible, terrible flood of coming water. Unlike the tsunamis of 2004 and 2011 (Japan), people seemed to have more time to flee, and there was a desperate fear as they did. But I wasn't fleeing. The dream indicated that I had fled (in the past) but I wasn't to now. I had to stay put. I was told, not only was it right, it was safer for me to do so. And the word that came to me as I pondered that dream long after was, Prepare for the coming waters.

    When I further pondered that, I was told that, for me, 'preparing' meant praying intensely for Abandoned Souls - living people whose souls are dead/dying and who do not have anyone to pray for them. I'm guessing this same call goes out to others as well, but differently. Just yesterday, the call to pray for the Abandoned came again through OL of Fatima. I think the Time of the Waters is getting close.

    P.S. Nancy, feel free to remove the link I inserted above.

    1. Hmmm. Interesting(I know that word is a major understatement). I'm leaving your link, and noting that the kind of flood you wrote of is already upon us, and towering more over us as time goes on. More quickly by the day, and many who have not recognized it are now beginning to see.

      I think of the Asian tsunami every time I look at this photo, and I think of it when I look at the photo you posted.

      One thing is for sure: it is a time for prayer, prayer, prayer.
